nah even in Europe being trans friendly makes you at least left leaning

we're not many miles ahead in the societal run towards progress and acceptance, the US is just sprinting the wrong way

LGBT has always been a target.

The "good guys" still (chemically) castrated one of their greatest minds that won the war for ten, just because he happened to like dicks.

Theres a reason people wanted to reduce the victims of the Holocaust to just being Jewish and ignored all the other groups that both sides wanted to persacute.

They did the same thing this time, target LGBT to build the movement and are now expanded to other groups.

Hopefully everyone stands up while we still have the numbers, otherwise they'll keep chipping away fringe groups.

In Europe being trans friendly has fuck-all to do with your political leanings on the left-right axis. It's just USA warping the political discourse with their literally one-dimensional politics.

though i agree it should have fuck all to do with your political leaning, in reality there's a strong enough correlation that ignoring it would be foolish. As a European trans person if given the choice to out myself to either a group of people i know are left leaning vs a group of people i know are right leaning i'd pick the leftists in a heartbeat

You don't even have to be trans friendly. He never said he was friendly. You can just not care about what other people do with their lives.

if someone is not outright hostile towards me when they learn i'm trans i consider them friendly :')
